{"product_id":"1560-geneva-bible-first-edition-facsimile-regular-edition-hardcover-burgundy","title":"1560 Geneva Bible  First Edition Facsimile Regular Edition  Hardcover  Burgundy","description":"The 1560 Geneva Bible is the work of religious leaders exiled from England to Geneva, Switzerland, after 1553. It was the first Bible in English to divide the scriptures into numbered verses. It was the most widely read and influential English Bible of the 16th and 17th centuries. Shakespeare quoted the Geneva Bible more than 5,000 times in his plays. The images contained within the Bible were produced by handcreated woodcuts. The marginal notes consisting of about 300,000 words or onethird of the text was key to its popularity. The marginal notes often reflected Calvinistic and Protestant reformation influences. These notes were not yet accepted by the Church of England and led to the Bibles demise. King James I considered the Geneva Bible seditious and made its ownership a felony. The Pilgrims and Puritans brought the Geneva Bible to America. This replica edition has been digitally remastered and slightly enlarged for easier reading, but none of the content has been altered. It contains all 80 books of the Bible within the Old Testament, Apocrypha and the New Testament. The Geneva Bible was the Bible of the Protestant Reformation, and the Bible of the Puritans and Pilgrims. It was the first Bible taken to America, brought over on the Mayflower. The Regular Edition of the 1560 Geneva Facsimile Reproduction measures approximately 11 x 8.75 x 3.25.
